My DH is looking for a medium-sized blue hosta that blooms well. Can anyone make a reccomendation?

I like Love Pat for it's nice blue and it's cupped/corregated leaves with good substance.

I second that. It held up well to the hail we had earlier this week. Not unblemished but not as bad as some others in my garden.

I planted a Halcyon hosta under an evergreen this year in the middle of our yard. It was spreading out well with a nice blue color until a deer came along and munched on it. I hope the remaining shreds of leaves will revive it.

Would be interesting to know if/when any new leaves develop. I trimmed some really ragged leaves from a number of hostas damaged by hail a couple of weeks ago.
